14) Shadow element

I heard a voice in my head saying " The third option of the absorption skill has been unlocked". I didn't have time to check the features of the skill so I took out narcotic spears from my inventory. The Triceratops charged at me again.

When I started to live alone I tried out various types of traps to trap and kill dinosaurs using my knowledge skill. One day when I prepared a new trap I heard a voice in my head " Due to continuous usage of the knowledge skill it has levelled up to level 2 ". I checked its features again and there was a new feature to the knowledge skill.

I can predict where my enemy will attack me from. I used this skill combined with my Dilo's reaction speed and dodged the charge and threw my spears at the eyes of the Triceratops when it turned around. If I can't poison it then I will blind it. The triceratops couldn't see where I was so it stood in the same place waiting for me to attack.

I don't have any other way of killing this Triceratops so I left it and went back to base. It seems I have to look into my abilities first. So I checked my element and my element was a rare element called shadow element. It gave me 3 choices to choose from.

1- SHADOW INVENTORY- you can carry items and other non-living beings in your shadow but you lose 1 mana per item carried per minute and if the item is taken out before 1 minute is over then they will still lose 1 mana. If they run out of mana all the items present in the shadow will automatically come out of the shadow

. 2- SHADOW STEP- you can travel from one shadow to another but there is a 5 seconds cooldown every time you use it and consumes 10 mana for every second spent in the shadows. 3- SHADOW PORTAL- you can transport items and other non-living things from one shadow to another but it costs 5 mana per item transported.

The one I would choose the least would be option 1. Sure I have more storage but I can just give my luggage to my dinosaurs so I have no use for it. 2 might seem like the best option since I could attack the enemy from behind but to deal damage I need to improve my strength stat. To continuously use the Shadow step I need to increase my mana stat.

The only other use the Shadow step has is to run away. Shadow Portal on the other hand only focuses on my mana stat. I could just send the narcotic spears to my enemy. I have been levelling up quite a lot and I am now at level 57. I didn't use the unallocated stat points and have been saving them for emergencies. The mana stat increases the maximum mana I can have and the intelligence stat increases the mana recovery rate.

I get 5 unallocated stat points at every level so I should have 285 unallocated stat points but I used 35 stat points on agility to increase my speed. I have 250 unallocated points left. I put 125 stat points into intelligence and mana. My intelligence is now at 2,700 due to 20 times intelligence boost. 1 mana stat point increases my mana capacity by 3. Since I have 135 stat points on mana I have 405 mana.

I chose shadow portal as my ability and I heard a voice say" You can unlock the other abilities as you level up " After congratulating me for picking shadow portal. I wanted to try using this ability so bad I didn't check the new feature in the absorption ability. I went to where I last saw the Flame Triceratops. Well it's time for a rematch
